Tofu, I doubt they will - either SCANDAL's official homepage or AM2 is gonna announce it before long (if it's true). The only way I see that NOT happening is if Sony tries to stiff-arm the AM2 people. Which, who knows, they might do...

I've turned in a Staff App to the AM2 people - maybe I can get special access, even be an interpreter.

haha I wonder how many of us are going to stay up for it. And I think it'll be just a website + Facebook + Twitter update, since that's what they did for the first GOH announcement. The only kind of video feed they seem to have is their YouTube channel, but they've been using that just to upload guest hints and stuff.

the twitter feed was updated last, I'll probably keep tabs on their facebook page. When it is 6 am (the announcement) what time would it be in japan?

Well, they did make another GOH announcement, but it wasn't SCANDAL.

AM² is proud to welcome Hangry & Angry character and fashion designer Gashicon, official Guests of Honor, and will showcase the highly coveted Hangry & Angry fashion line of the same name which features the infamous “gro-kawa” (grotesque and cute) themed line at a fashion show at this summer’s most anticipated anime, Japanese music and manga event! More info and attendee registration can be found at www.am2con.org

Gashicon is the up-and-coming illustrator who is in charge of producing the Hangry & Angry characters and comics. With regular publications in visual-kei music magazines in Japan, the comic has successfully developed and popularized the unique world of Hangry & Angry to where it was highly involved with the hit anime-based live-action film “Death Note”. AM2 attendees will be able to catch up with the latest Hangry & Angry fashions at this year’s event.

“AM² welcomes our attendees to enter the unique world of Hangry & Angry,” states AM² representative Chase Wang, “the unique style and look has made it a must have and see for all those who are into Japanese fashions!”

Okay, guys, I think I definitely should post this here. It's from one of the staff members from AM2, and he explained on cosplay.com boards' AM2 thread about why there's a lack of GOH updates and whatnot.

Sorry for the lack of response. Initially, I was was looking into the matter, but I unfortunately got confirmation of our announcement dates almost exactly when the earthquake hit. We felt it would be highly inconsiderate to make a marketing push in the immediate wake of the tragedy, and delayed our schedule accordingly.

I am no longer certain how soon we'll begin making concrete guest announcements, but you can be confident that we will do so as soon as we feel it is appropriate. As you stated, it will boost Passport sales, which we obviously want to happen.

So, yeah, instead of us being all, "Why haven't they announced them already?!" we really should just sit tight and hope that hopefully soon SCANDAL will be announced as the next GOH.

The only thing is that they might wait to announce SCANDAL after the 30th of this month, which would mean that they are increasing the passport price by another $5, not a whole lot a money, but trying to get the most money they can lol.
